The online auction that raises vital funds for the New Car Dealers Foundation of BC and Special Olympics BC has a brand-new name and look!
The longtime event is now known as the Auction for Athletes, sporting an eye-catching new look that will turn heads and expand reach to make a difference for our two charities. While this annual fundraiser has a fresh coat of paint, under the hood is the same high-performance engine that’s been changing lives for more than three decades.
Previously known as the New Car Dealers Foundation / Special Olympics BC Auction, the event supports Special Olympics BC’s empowering programs for athletes with intellectual disabilities, and the foundation’s grants and scholarships for automotive industry programs.

B.C.’s New Car Dealers
